Read in Context

Chapter 53, Page 528, Juz 27

33. Didst thou (O Muhammad) observe him who turned away, 34. And gave a little, then was grudging? 35. Hath he knowledge of the Unseen so that he seeth? 36. Or hath he not had news of what is in the books of Moses 37. And Abraham who paid his debt: 38. That no laden one shall bear another's load, 39. And that man hath only that for which he maketh effort, 40. And that his effort will be seen. 41. And afterward he will be repaid for it with fullest payment; 42. And that thy Lord, He is the goal; 43. And that He it is who maketh laugh, and maketh weep, 44. And that He it is Who giveth death and giveth life; 45. And that He createth the two spouses, the male and the female, 46. From a drop (of seed) when it is poured forth; 47. And that He hath ordained the second bringing forth; 48. And that He it is Who enricheth and contenteth; 49. And that He it is Who is the Lord of Sirius; 50. And that He destroyed the former (tribe of) A'ad, 51. And (the tribe of) Thamud He spared not; 52. And the folk of Noah aforetime, Lo! they were more unjust and more rebellious; 53. And Al-Mu'tafikah He destroyed 54. So that there covered them that which did cover. 55. Concerning which then, of the bounties of thy Lord, canst thou dispute? 56. This is a warner of the warners of old. 57. The threatened Hour is nigh. 58. None beside Allah can disclose it. 59. Marvel ye then at this statement, 60. And laugh and not weep, 61. While ye amuse yourselves? 62. Rather prostrate yourselves before Allah and serve Him.
